[groovy-eclipse-plugin-dev] New changes to the snapshot update site

Hi all,

Just a reminder that those of you who do not need to follow the latest
and greatest Groovy-Eclipse snapshots can use the milestone update
site:
http://dist.springsource.org/milestone/GRECLIPSE/e3.5/

And for those of you who do want to use the latest and greatest, you
can still get it here:
http://dist.codehaus.org/groovy/distributions/greclipse/snapshot/e3.5/

However, I have made another change to the feature set (and this only
applies to the snapshot update site). The reason for this change is
to encourage users to install only the top-level feature and hence
avoid update problems in the future. Now when you go to the update
site, you will see only Groovy-Eclipse and the two SDK features. The
other features are hidden and will be installed automatically when
Groovy-Eclipse is installed (and thus ensuring future updates run
smoothly).

Unfortunately, this means that if you have explicitly installed any of
the sub-features in the past, you will have to uninstall the plugin
before you can install just the top-level feature. This is described
in an Eclipse p2 bug here:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=292783

Thanks for your patience as we all learn a little more about p2.
